Ghoul RE Noro Kagune

The Noro Kagune is a powerful Ukaku-type Kagune used by Noro in Tokyo Ghoul. This Kagune specializes in overwhelming control, large area attacks, and applying debuffs that enhance your abilities during combat.

Its unique “Appetizing” and “Gnawing Hunger” mechanics make it extremely effective in extended fights, allowing players to steal hunger from enemies and gain Hyper-armor.

Stage 1 — Skills & Mechanics

Type	Kagune Class	Stages Available	Style	Specialty
Ukaku	Legendary	Stage 1 & Stage 2	Heavy AoE / Control	Buff Stealing & Debuffing

[[Critical]] — Rotating Slash

Perform a short wind-up and then spin your Kagune around you, striking nearby enemies.

Z — Gnaw

Gain Hyper-armor while lunging your Kagune forward to knock enemies back.

X — Devour

Swing your Kagune overhead and slam it down in front of you, launching enemies away.

C — Mastication

Strike quickly with your Kagune. If the enemy is marked with “Appetizing”, this will grant you “Gnawing Hunger”. While under this buff:

• Z & X no longer cause knockback
• X gains Hyper-armor
• Z, X, and C steal enemy hunger

Stage 2 — Enhanced Skills & Buffs

Upon reaching Stage 2, Noro gains significant improvements to utility and sustain, while maintaining its core control abilities.

[[Critical]] — Mastication (New Default Critical)

Your Critical now functions exactly like your Stage 1 Mastication skill.

Z — Gnaw (Enhanced)

Same as Stage 1, but while under Gnawing Hunger it will pull enemies instead of pushing them.

X — Devour (Enhanced)

Same as Stage 1 but faster when under Gnawing Hunger buff.

C — Usurper

Unleash a powerful roar with your Kagune, affecting all enemies around you.

Strengths of Noro Kagune

Noro Kagune is an excellent choice for players who prefer control-based, sustain-heavy combat. Its unique buff system adds a layer of strategy, rewarding precision and timing.

Stage 2 enhances its power dramatically, making it one of the most fearsome Kagunes when used correctly. While not the fastest or flashiest, Noro thrives in long fights, slowly overpowering opponents through raw pressure and survival.
